Hey, I am looking for older inspiring you tube personalities and role models, preferably female (sorry guys it's the menopause thing) but male personalities too. As I look around the fitness world, the you tube channels, instagram etc I see lots of great channels with inspiring role models sharing their journeys and giving great advice. However, most of them are young, and I just would like to see examples of people closer to my age that have had success and have stories to share. So any channels you know of that fall into this category please let me know, thanks.

    Are you interested in Crossfit at all?
    Crossfit has a YouTube channel and, yes, much of it is about lifting heavy weights and younger people. But it does have lots of inspirational videos as well. They tell stories about this person who was overweight, or that person who is disabled, etc. Many feature middle-aged people. Sometimes they have overcome challenges, but often they are just people (women as often as men) who are in good shape and work hard at it.
    Sorry I don't have anything better.
    Good luck.

    Fitnessblender! they are awesome and so down to earth. Kelli does most of the workouts with the occasional (brutal) workout with Daniel. Totally free and so fun.
